bowmakers was born in Paris, 1747;
his name Francis Tourte. He was ear
ly in life o clockmaker's apprentice,
and Is said never to have known how to
read and write; but he appreciated the
necessity of better bows than violinists
could procure. Experiments develop
ed the fact that Pernambuco wood best
combined requisite strength, spring,
and lightness for perfect article. In
his day, as now, the wood was import
cd for dyeing purposes. 1t is difficult
to obtain in desirable condition, hav-
ing many crooks, knots, and cracks
within the sticks. Always expensive.
in Tourte's day it often costs shillings
q pound. He decided on a total length
Of twenty-nine and one-half inches, the
haired part having an available surface
Of twenty-six. The bow to be of value
must be bent by heat so applied that the
inner fibres of the wood are thoroughly
affected, or the shape will soon be lost.
The horse-hair requires as much care
in selection as the wood. Each strand
should be equally cylindrical throughout
its length. The hair is secured with
alkalies. washed in bran water, and
finally cleaned in water slightly tinged
with blue. Tourte put about two humid

The evolution from a barren desert to blooming garden can be accomplished, it is true, without the presence of a railroad, but the attempt is seldom made in this age'of rapid action. Strangers must come and see what we can do and what has been done that is good and profitable, and very soon the pro cession will turn its column this way and stop with us, but strangers will hardly find us unless they can ride here comfort ably in luxurions Pullman.

THE town of Tubac, ill Pima county, has recently gained considerable prom thence through a contested town site case before the local land office, in which a part of its history has been brought out. It is claimed for this miserable relic of ancient grandeur that it is the oldest set tlement in the United States. It cer- tainly shows the rnvages of time in manner that might lend moral or adorn its tale, and, forsaken and friendless, it will be saved from the burial of oblivion in the potters- field by this sixpenny suit. In 1539, when the proud city of Tubac was first discovered by Coronado, It then contained fifty thousand inhabitants and was the capital of Papaguerita land of the Papagos. It was also the first capital of Arizona where the United States laws were first promulgated. The vicis
 situdes of the'quaint, old, remnant of de- parted glory reads like romance that is filed with touching pathos and completed with sad termination, and for the great
 ness of it's former life it should be treasur- ed as a memory rather than be given over to the cultivation of chili and friioles,

THE rssh of people from the east to the

THE rush of people from the east to the Pacific Coast still continues unabated, and the railroads have been taxed to their utmost capacity to accommodate the enormous travel. Among these people there is an element seeking new homes in q land where the severity of the win ter season is curbed and the soil is so fruitful that comfortable income may be easily secured. This element cares very little for the roar of the ocean surf nor the beauty of the massive piles of mason " that mark the habitations of men upon whom fortune has smiled with its bland est expression, and they cannot well afford to risk their modest means where a return inadequate to their necessities is received from their costly purchases, while far more favorable conditions may be found just beyond the lofty swim into which they have plunged by following the crowd. Arizona has better soil and can produce more and better crops that will command higher prices, and it is blessed with climate that is not egualed any where else in the country. In this Ter ritory this desirable element can obtain productive lands, build comforta ble homes and place themselves upon a solid tinane cial basis for all time for far less out lay of money that their naked land will cost them in California, and they will have the further satisfaction of realizing that their possessions here are always in- creasing in value while California has reached the limit of fictitious values. We do not seek to detract one iota from the advantages and worth of California, for it is without any question the grandest state in the union; but we can show con- parisons by facts and figures that the southern portion of Arizona possesses in q greater degree all the inducements Calif ornia can offer to immigrants, be- sides others that are entirely local The wealthy pleasure seekers can buy their comfort almost anywhere and do not care for the productive value of theil Pacific Coast resorts, but the element of whom we speak-men of more moderate meahs-must invest their money to produce an income and, with out entering into exhaustive particulars
 we can confidently promise them thai southern Arizona ohe IS them an unequal ed filled for this purpose.

THE facility with which prospector can do one hundred dollars worth ot as- sessment work on his mining claim by the proper use of a new location blank on the first day of January, enables many men to hold on to claims for long series Of years without the necessity of perform ing any development work whatever. This is an evasion of the spirit of the law that often works to the detrlment of good mining sections, and yet, where its exercise is made in good faith by parties who have not been able to either pay for, or do the work themselves, it is a blessed loophole to the poor mine own CT. HfThere are claimants, however, who locate dozens of pr ohlising claims and hold them year after year in this man ner, in the hope that others will develop adjacent claims and make them valua ble, but as a rule very little is made by such a course. Undeveloped claims are not in demand, and it is far better in any view of the case, for the prosEector to confine all his efforts to one or two good claims and thoroughly develop them. If they are good he will be provided for all his future wants; if they are not good the sooner the fact Is re alized the better il ia

Queen Victoria Not Popular.

The queen is not popular. Very few people know anything about her. I do not believe that 15 per cent. of the people of London have ever seen her. She lives such a retired life that she is rarely taken into consideration in connection with public questions. She appears to have very little sympathy with English people and to be as foreign at heart as if she had always lived on the continent. This is shown whenever she goes~over to the continent for a change. She is quite an- other person when she is over there, The French people are delighted with her and the French papers are filled with glowing accounts of her popularity at Aix-les-Bains. When she is on the con- tinent she goes out and mixes with people and shows herself everywhere on all pub lie occasions. But in England she shuts herself up like a recEuse and only with great difficulty can be persuaded to spend two or three weeks i1 London during the year.-London Cor. New York World.

IN south ern Arizona, for a short season of rest only does nature mark the partial pause ill vegetable growth that is else where dreary and long winter The bright sunshine remains and, although the morning air is somewhat keen for short period ot time, the only irresistible proof one receives that 1t is not really springtime is the leahess trees that appear to wonder in solemn gloom why the frosts and snow do not fall and the cold winds blow when they have prepared for the winter. Bright grass plats and m eadows upon which cattle graze still please the eye, and the birds sing as gaily as in sum mer time, but the desolate trees wave their skeleton branches in the breeze and put to flight the imagining that winter does rot exist in this land of so many blessings. But this passive state does not exist very long and pretty soon some of the trees will apparently awaken to a consciousness that they have likely slept late upon the moring of new year and hurry to put on their early robes of spring time. Only short, very short, season of rest is our winter, and it possesses lit tie of the desolation that surrounds { country covered deep with the white snow, and none of it's many other climatic evils. Our winter is the gorgeous plume in Arizona's cap of greatness.

IT does not do much good to simply talk" railroad, we fully realize, but a subject of such vital importance to the progress and prosperity of Florence and the Gila valley, cannot be kept before the people too prominently for thought and discussion and, perhaps, ultimate action. We want railroad and must
 have one, even if is only branch line from Pcacho or Casa Grande. The broad acres that are being brought under cultivation along the new irrigating ca nals will create largo traffic for road

The article is replete with descriptions and illustrations showing how our leading painters and sculptors have represented the ideal Christ, A very interesting account is also given of the origin and history of this ideal, which, according to early tra- ditions, may be traced to portrait talk en in the lifetime of Jesus.
